Trying too hard.

I am trying
too hard.
Too hard to
replace you.
I hate the way
I feel.
Weak.
It drains the
life from my
face.
For a moment
you were gone
and my heart
felt free.
It felt so
light.
I feel the elephant
sitting on my chest
and I want it.. to
 just get up.
Get up
so I can breath.
Why do you
not want me
to breath?
To live.
I am trying too
hard to let go.
You are trying
too hard to hang
on.
neither one
of us will make
it.
We will both
stop breathing.
so
just
let
go.
